Description

We introduce a novel molecular sensor designed for the study of fundamental interactions, focusing on clock transitions within a Hg-Hg system. Our project implements optical Feshbach resonances in systems involving Hg$_2$ or Hg-alkali systems, with the ultimate goal of constructing a Hg$_2$ optical molecular clock. This tool has the potential to push limits for fundamental research by achieving unprecedented advancements in terms of precision and accuracy.
